Oh yeah, that's for sure. Messenger and Snapchat are more in the dark side.

Don't know. I wish I didn't have to have a Meta app installed on my phone.

A fresh start is always good. And I feel the community will get bigger eventually. Reddit was becoming quite toxic lately, so is good to have a new place.

Thoughts on Android 12/13 UI and whitespace in c/[email protected]

As a Samsung user since OneUI 2, I quite dig Android 12+ looks. It helps with bigger screens. But the quick settings toggles are quite a waste of space that big, I agree. When using some ROMs you can reduce the toggles size, and it gets real better.

Aurora recognize the apps normally. No need to unistall them. It will work just like the Play Store.

Whatsapp is less "worst" as it have E2EE by default in every conversation. I'd say Telegram privacy wise is a joke.

I don't believe there's any reliable option besides Samsung Pay, but it's locked to Samsung devices. Privacy-wise, I'm not aware of any solution.
